“Talking of books while dancing, Mr. Darcy?” She playfully chided him as they left the dance floor.

“Too mundane?” He queried in reply. “Would you rather canvas the weather or the flower arrangements?”

Leenie Brown fell in love with Jane Austen's works when she first read Sense and Sensibility followed immediately by Pride and Prejudice in her early teens. As the second of five daughters and an avid reader, she has always loved to see where her imagination takes her and to play with and write about the characters she meets along the way. In 2013, these two loves collided when she stumbled upon the world of Jane Austen Fan Fiction. A year later, in 2014, she began writing her own Austen-inspired stories and began publishing them in 2015. Leenie lives in Nova Scotia, Canada with her two teenage boys and her very own Mr. Brown (a wonderful mix of all the best of Darcy, Bingley and Edmund with healthy dose of the teasing Mr. Tillney and just a dash of the scolding Mr. Knightley).

  1. Wow! How did they have the stamina to do those dances? I clicked on several and was out of breath myself just watching. I suppose the silly sisters [Lydia and Kitty] kept themselves in dancing form with walking to Meryton daily [2-miles round trip]. That gives me a new perspective when Lydia crows that they danced every dance and Mary none. I’m afraid I’d be over against the wall with Mary. Whew! Let me catch my breath. How did they remember those steps? Man… no wonder Collins turned wrong… I could see how easily it could be done and that would certainly destroy the form of the dance as well as train wreck the whole group. Thanks for the lovely clip.

    1. I would be the one tripping and causing a catastrophe most likely. 🙂 And turning a lovely red from all the exertion, but it does look like fun.
